Hi,
sorry for the delay in posting back...
Yeah that does look like the space is tight, I think the laser would have to be tried onto the saw to make sure it would fit.
Regards. |

Hi uncle buck, why worry about using an aftermarket replacemnt from another saw, why not buy one of the irwin ones specially designed for the saw, i bought one from america last year and it is great, fits in same place as the metabo one and comes with washers to make it fit most saws
Heres a link to the one i have, i know its from america, but gives you the idea and the part number to search more

sparkydude,
excellent that's just the job. 
So if anyone wants a laser of their 712 you know what to do.
Regards. |

Is it powered by battery
The reason being l got one of those a couple of years ago from across the
pond and it was great, then l found out why it came with 3 batteries and
that type of battery is not cheap
Anyway l thought they were such a good idea l gave the company a call
to discuss the posibility of being a distributer for them in the UK
This is when i found out that they were trying to develope one without the
need for batteries and also that some guy in the UK was already selling
them on fleabay
